[Idyllchat] How to take a peek at Venice

[Anne Friedman]

I did a one-day visit to Venice a couple of years ago, and it was well worth
it. As a previous reply mentioned, taking the train from Verona is the way
to go. We were staying in Vicenza at the time, (which is close to Verona).
Once you get to town you can just take the vaporetto to St. Marks square,
walk around, absorb the atmosphere. Don't forget to sit down frequently at
cafes for coffee or glasses of cold white wine. Even a few hours there will
make a lasting impression. I still remember that as one of the highlights of
the trip to Europe.

Subject: [Idyllchat] How to take a peek at Venice?
We are going to be in Italy in October.  We are spending two weeks on an
Untour in Tuscany North.  Prior to that we are spending a week in Verona.
We have never been to Venice but do not have time to this trip to really add
it to our itinerary.  However, we are considering trying to at least take a
peek at it.  To those who are experienced with Venice, if you only had time
to spend a day and one night in Venice and you had a car, how would you do
it?  Where would you leave the car?  Where would you stay for the night?

We know it is not the best way to do Venice and someday we will return
there, maybe for an Untour week, but not this trip.  Or is it crazy to even
consider this little diversion?

Appreciate your opinions.
